Peer
Pressure
Workshop
Ahmad
Sakr Partying, dating,
drinking and pre-marital sex have become normal practices in
Western society. And many Muslim youth in the West, especially
those is public school, feel the pressure to conform to these
norms on a daily basis. Ahmad Sakr tackles these issues head-on
with a workshop meant to be a starting point for finding solutions
to this predicament. His convincing approach is simple, straight-forward,
humorous and daring. Hear about Dr. Sakr's own personal experience
of peer pressure and how he dealt with it. And also get practical
advice from college-age Muslims who have traveled down the same
road but were able to triumph over the pressures they faced.
This candid, interactive workshop allows the youth in attendance
to open up and inquire about the issues troubling them in their
social dealings which are negatively affecting their faith. An
equally important session for both youth and parents! (Duration:
1 hour, 35 min)
Ahmad Sakr was educated
at the American University in Beirut and the University of Illinois
where he received his PhD. He received his Islamic education
through the late Grand Mufti of Lebanon and from Muslim scholars
from neighboring countries. He is president of the Foundation
for Islamic Knowledge and has written over 56 books about Islam.
